Phone will not booting anymore, please help - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hey guys since today I can not startup my phone. The screen stays black and in red
text I got the message "custom binairy blocked by FRP lock"
Can anybody help me please.

FRP lock stands for Factory Reset Protection, it's there to stop a phone being stolen and sold on. You must have made changes (root etc) without first setting the OEM Unlock to on in Developer Options.
You now need to flash the stock rom with ODIN and, on boot, log in using the Google account that was in use when the changes were made and the lock happened. Without that Google account you won't be able to use the phone. As soon as you do that, go into the Dev Options and select OEM Unlock to stop it happening again.

Thanks for your answer, is there any url where I can download the stockrom for the G935F and any tutorial how to flash with Odin?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3335065

Now I donloaded Odin 3.11 and the latest firmware file.
I did also extract the firmware file, now 5 files are comming up.
I understand to put one in AP, one into CP, one into BL and one into CSC.
But where do I have to put the file starting with HOME?

List the contents of the zip/rar.

It, is done now. Phone is booting again and I had to verify with my google account.
Thanks for your fast and kindly helping.

No probs, glad you sorted it.

S7 Edge - Custom Binary block by FRP Lock

Hi Guys,
I'm sure some of you may have heard about this error before.
Well, here's my sad sad story.
After trying to root my s7 edge,
Everything seems fine.
One day when i re-format my phone, and after which downloaded a few apps, there wasn't any issue at all
However when i restarted my phone, i saw the error msg : Custom Binary block by FRP Lock
And after which it can't boot up anymore.
Anyone of you guys able to help me ?

i have same issue here, did you find any solutions ?
AFAIK when you factory reset your phone etc. if rooted you must remember to go back into Developer Options and re enable OEM Unlocking. This depends on the method you used to root, if you flashed dm-verity then you "May not" have this issue but cannot say for sure.
If it is already too late for you then I think you need to flash stock via Odin, plenty of threads out there on where to find the firmware (SamMobile) and how to do it. Even a quick google of the error gave me plenty of results...
One thing I have read is that you may have to keep trying to get your phone into download mode as the timing is much stricter with this error message.
I've the same problem with my g935x blocked on FRP when ii treid to root if any one can help .plz

@djluisbento This method seems to be interesting. But would you please clarify more about it. How to install the apk file on official recovery? Or it's enough to have the pendrive connected? And if yes, when this step should take place, after flashing the official ROM or when?
I'm stuck in a boot loop into recovery mode with dm-verity error, and unfortunately I have the FRP locked, so I can't install TWRP to flash the no-dm-verity.zip file to skip it.
Appreciate your suggestions.
I have the same issure. stock firmware wont install either. im just stuck on the FRP screen, cant even get into recovery
Same issue here, please help
Everything was fine with rooting and installing TWRP. after that did a restart/ attempt to goto twrp recovery, from then the s7 edge is stuck at "Custom Binary Blocked By FRP" and doesnt boot. please help!!
Have you do a Wipe then Format Data.
Then flash the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip in TWRP
Only if you want internal storage or data to work in TWRP:
Go to [Wipe] -> [Format Data] (not advanced wipe) -> type "yes".
WARNING: This will wipe your internal storage, disable encryption, and factory reset your phone!
Go to [Reboot] -> [Recovery].
If you want to be rooted with SuperSU:
Download the latest SuperSU by Chainfire.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the SuperSU zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
If you only want a bootable system partition or writable data in TWRP:
Download the latest dm-verity and force encryption disabler zip.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.

Had that problem with a brand new phone, just wanted to get into download mode to see if the phone was tampered with and boom, flash screen with the red warning, flashed stock KSA (phone original CSC) , worked and phone was formatted, another surprise was faced, google did not accept my gmail account, had to shut down phone for 72 hours as read in my google search for people encountering same issue, once the 72 hours passed I was able to sign in and using my phone again.

Yes, flashed both Zips in recovery. I used my regular google account during the initial set up. If i wait for 72 hours, will the phone just boot back online just fine? Still, how do i make sure it wont goto the FRP lock again while trying to reboot or reboot to TWRP?
Solved,
Flashed with stock firmware, logged in with same google account, rooted with TWRP, installed Zubi's sound mod. Made sure to keep the 'OEM Unlock' stay turned on.

Helo
But U did this after 72 hours?
There are several methods depending on firmware version installed on your phone. Basically you have to enter in your phone, launch chrome, install an app which gives you the possibility to log into your google account from chrome and not set-up program.
I used successfully the Bluetooth method. Search for with google. You need a bluetooth headset and follow the steps described on youtube.
BTW. My phone was brand new and I flashed different official samsung firmware ( csc). I had to change google password in between and that resulted in FRP lock....
The wait time is 24 hours as is stated in google docs from site

Hello I have a related problem, opened a new thread, but my thread was closed, because my problem is related to this one, but more complicated. I have the same problem with FRP lock as described here, I can turn on the download mode but it wont be recognized by my computer. I tried different usb cables, drivers, even computers, it wont help. I cant flash it with odin, smartswitch, kies, no matter what I try. If I go to recovery mode it says `dm-verity verification failed...`and if I choose `apply update from ADB or SD card` it says `update from external storage disabled`. I dont know what to do anymore Its a new phone
FRP Block - no Dev Tools enabled
Hey guys,
you're my last resort, I've tried everything I happened to come across, to no avail.
First off, I did something incredibly stupid, don't even ask me why, as I have no idea what the heck drove me to do this in the first place.
Anyways, I was using the stock ROM on my S7 Edge, not tweaked or tinkered with besides the usual CF-Auto_Root. It never caused any trouble whatsoever. But for no reason at all this morning I decided to disable USB debuggin and OEM unlock. A short while later I rebooted my phone, which ended up in "Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock".
I gave a factory reset a try, but that obviously didn't change a thing. So I went to sammobile.com and downloaded the latest official stock ROM for my device and tried flashing it with Odin. Unfortnately Odin always fails with "Complete(Write) operation failed.", which I assume is because I messed with the settings in dev mode.
Next stop: ADB. I've never used that thing before, but I thought I should possibly be able to get it done following a simple guide. Unfortunately ADB won't even list my device when typing "adb devices". It's just an empty list.
So please guys, give me some tipps on how I can bring my phone back to life.

Samsung FRP Bypass

Hi, I'm a total noob on this but I don't know where to start to looking for an answer.
My girlfriend went on vacation (from Chile) to the united states, her mother gave her a cell phone (her cell phone at that moment) an almost new Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (SM-G935P) from the Sprint Network.
Before returning to Chile the cell phone was unlocked (or so they said at Spring), so here in Chile she put her local carrier SIM but the cell phone never recognized the Sim Card.
So she hard reset the cell phone. Everything went well until he had to enter the original Gmail account for the cell phone. Her mother did not remember the password so after som trial and error, they manged to reset the Google Account. But now when I try to enter de Gmail and password give me this error: Unable to sign in device due to a recent password change. try again in 24 hours, I have waited more than 24 hours and still can't activate the account.
The cell phone is still showing at her known devices in her mother's Gmail account, and the password is correct but I can't by pass the Gmail Activation, I was reading that I can downgrade to a firmware that allowed me to by pass the Samsung FRP but I don't know wich firmware I can use.
Can someone plase guide me how can I activate this cell phone.
Thank you!
edit: You were right I apologize.
If you want to get your password then whoever knows the best information will need to tell google over the phone what that information was when initially set up...birthdays, time of creation,etc-when they ask and %100 will ask. If she/you don't know it..you may never get it back... but calling their --> Customer Support <-- is your best option.
For s7 edge Android 7.0
So I found a way to bypass Google frp on Android 7.0 for the s7 edge and couple other model, it's an old way but modified. First enter into the Google account login screen where it says verify your account. All you do is simply over load it with characters. Tyler a bunch misc letters and number until you have a long good string then begine select all copy paste do this until your phone seem like it going to freeze up. I did it until it took about 2-5 mins to go through. Doing this will send you to a screen says error something went wrong. Hit enternor continue and if you notice this time when it goes back to verify your account the screen should have a black background at the top where's your notifacatioons are . Repeat 2-3-4 times overloading it and getting the error message I'm not sure exactly how many time think it suffers a on phone and Android build I just know once isn't enough to do it so do it a fewbtime it'll take awhile to get the first error but after that you should have the character line copies and ready to paste. After a couple time hit back arrow on your phone clear to where it ask to select language or start screen and emergency call if done correctly it should now give you the accessibility menu also enter into the accessibility option and modify your set up. Mess with stuff a little be careful with setting up universal switches as you can really mess yourself up. At some point in time you should be able to get your notification menu to drop down and open. When this happens hit the little setting menu button long click it and it should shortcut you to system settings. Bypassing for temporarily. Set up your setting and movie your app permissions as much as possible. Now the trick is getting my Knox downloaded open and set up on your phone. Once you do this make sure you click on both my Knox and regular device administration for know to have some control and make sure you say yes for Knox to be able to reset wipe your phone . After device administration is set and that all done go to your pc or another phone tablet whatever and log into know online and you hold re your phone connected on it white a button that says wipe this phone. Click it make sure the phone has Wi-Fi or service connected and wait for phone to wipe this should reset frp and Google verification back to being a new phone. There ya go merry Christmas

Fцck no it ain't legit. Dude probably got baked & strung up that nonsense to laugh at folks who tried it. You could string up a petrabyte worth of miscellaneous characters so long that your phone would be permanently frozen... & you wouldn't get an error message to pop up, let alone one that would change your notification bar background color or whatever else he said

S7 & S7 Edge FRP [SOLVED]
Here's the real S7 & S7 Edge FRP bypass method..
Nougat 7.0+ will NOT work; You NEED to downgrade to Marshmallow. Links to Stock Firmware & FRP Removal files posted at the bottom.
- Download & extract the .zip file from my Google Drive below to your PC, then extract + run Odin
- Flash the boot.tar file that corresponds with your device (enables ADB)
- Once the device reboots to the Welcome page, run the Qualcomm.bat file (reboots to Download Mode & removes FRP Lock)
- Back in Download Mode, flash the [MM] Stock ROM (CSC_HOME keeps user data; CSC wipes user data)
You've now successfully kicked FRP's ass from the device. Congrats.
NOTICE:
- You will be able to upgrade back to Nougat 7.0 following successful FRP Removal
- I INTENTIONALLY LEFT A FEW STEPS OUT. It took me a solid week to finally crack this migraine of a phone. You WILL have to figure some parts out on your own just like I did. If you cant, why are you even here?

Flashing the boot image tar file causes bootloop. I believe that's also the eng boot file? For root? How do you solve bootloop? Also what marshmallow were you on before doing this?

There is Nougat boot files. Check xda here for Qualcomm s7 root. There's a boot file you need to flash before doing adb root.bat..this enables adb, But this also causes bootloop.

I think this could be the one:

What do you think? although it is for another is for G935T no G935P

Just downgrade to marshmallow.. Try PJ2.. I used that. Flash the boot file provided, run Qualcomm.bat via adb.. Then flash again 6.0.1... If phone reboot after flash boot file, you'll have to be very fast, after phone boot to welcome screen, before it reboots, keep running the Qualcomm.bat till u see adb recognize device. It will say error. About phone storage. Just ignore. It has been unlocked
Starting to see how much of a headache this sh¡t was is? Took me a solid week to crack it.

I have a G935V that is stuck with FRP. I reset my password today and then happened to try to flash a new ROM (didnt know about FRP at the time).
Been trying this all day, but cant get the S7 & S7 Edge QUALCOMM.bat to run on the phone... a flashed back to MM and the Boot.rar pushes fine, but when the phone gets to the welcome screen its like my computer doesn't recognize the phone is connected. Any ideas?
This worked great on my VZW s7 (just had to get the right VZW firmware)...
@KjK89, you have to run the .bat file before the welcome screen. I basically kept running it over and over during boot and it took before th welcome screen.
Check my post about SAMSUNG S7 Nougat 7.0 frp remove

Anybody looking for a fix for Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge Factory Reset Protection Bypass needs to follow these steps and you'll get past this pesky protection.
The only step that wasn't clear was this:
- Flash the boot.tar file that corresponds with your device (enables ADB)
On Odin you have to choose the boot.tar file corresponding to your model number. This is done by selecting the BL button and only that one then in Odin click Start. This might be clear for veterans to flashing phones with new firmwares but it wasn't clear for me, being the n00b that I am. Thanks again. This worked great!

(Soft-)Bricked S7 Edge/G935F with FRP lock & DRK error, but no root/OEM unlock/ADB

(Soft-)Bricked S7 Edge/G935F with FRP lock & DRK error, but no root/OEM unlock/ADB
Hello guys,
I bought a, what I thought to be, soft bricked S7 Edge (G935F) from the bay. It was listed as having sw issues, so I thought I could easily fix the issue myself. Stupid me, this one really isn't easy to fix. I've tried a lot of different hints that I found meandering around the web, but none of them have proofed working so far. I would appreciate some help because I don't seem to be making any progress.
When I got the phone, it would boot directly into Android Recovery with a dm-verity error on the bottom.
Below is what I have tried already:
1 . First I did the obvious, factory reset and wipe partition. No change.
2. Downloaded the latest firmware with updato (SM-G935F Region DBT) and flashed with Odin. It then booted into a screen with a hazard sign and a DRK error (Device does not have DRK, please install DRK first. press any button). Then returned to Android Recovery with variations of the DRK and dm-verity error messages
3. I flashed the same firmware again. This time the phone booted up to a Samsung error that said to use SmartSwitch's Emergency recovery. I tried but it asks for a recovery code and I don't have one.
4. I used an older version of SmartSwitch which gave me the initialization option where you need to input the device model and SN - SmartSwitch decided not to cooperate and noted that the S7 edge does not support initialization
5. I tried to flash CF-autoroot but it gave an error in Odin and failed because it is "Blocked by FRP Lock". I can't boot normally into android. Any workaround?
6. I used a dm-verity workaround file (G935FXXU1DQC4_FIX_DRK_dm-verity.tar) to actually get the phone booted up- but then it asks for the account information to do away with the FRP lock. And the former owner does not want to give me his login information. In addition, none of the workarounds (bluetooth, modem terminal prompts, etc.) did work.
7. Flashed oldest Android version I could find for the G935F - 5.1.1 - this gave me a prompt right after reboot that looks like the password request for encrypting memory. default_password and variations did not work. I am still stuck with...
No Support SINGLE-SKU
Supported API: 3
dm-verity error...
failed code : 0x02
...in the recovery
8. I flashed the combination file and was able to boot into Factory Binary and used the IMEI recovery option which is supposed to fix also the DRK issue. No luck.
So, this is where I am right now. If anyone out there still has sparks of hope, I would be delighted to hear about them.
Thanks much in advance!
Conversion software and ADB Shell
Small update - I booted into factory mode again using the conversion firmware. This way, I could connect to the device via ADB and use ADB shell. There is a guide (here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-how-to-fix-check-drk-imei-issues-t3379516) which guides through IMEI recovery using the conversion software and factory mode - that is supposed to also help with DRK issues. Did not work for me.
Another great guide (here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...fix-drk-dm-verity-factory-csc-serial-t3422965) used ADB shell to push and repair the DRK with some additional files. Since the device is not rooted, I did not get very far, either.
So, no progress whatsoever.
In summary, I can get the device booted up into factory mode using the conversion firmware, or, by using the dm-verity tweaked firmware, I can end up in the Google Account locked part of the initial start-up settings.
Any ideas?
Have you looked at the process to completely re-do a phone stuck in the Google auth log-in? At least that is how I understand where you are stuck. I have a phone arriving soon that I will need to re-flash to get out of that, via Odin.

Hi JeffDC,
Thanks a lot for the reply. How would this process look like? I have flashed the phone with all sorts of variations of Android L, M and N - plus the combination fw and the one with the dm-verity/DRK workaround which at least got the phone booted up. But then I am stuck at the google auth request.
I cannot flash anything custom since the FRP lock is on.
Hence, if there is any other way to re-do the phone as you are saying, I would live to hear about it.

Hi JeffDC,
Thanks a lot for the links.
Link #1: I can flash the file #1 and get the device visible for ADB by using the combination FW before starting the steps. Unfortunately, step #2 does not work due to lack of permissions. I guess because of missing root.
Links #2 and #3: These are the guides I was already referencing in my post #2 - they both do not work due to, I guess, missing root.
Smart Switch initialization
Update: I got smart switch to do the update and initialization for the device. Workaround was to use a different real serial number than the one of the actual device (I can only assume that it has got to do with country presets).
Cool stuff, all went smooth - but, still the same result. The device ends up in recovery showing the dm-verity error (failed code : 0x02) with FRP lock on and no root.

Interesting read, particularly ignoring the trojan squabbling.
Uses script and setup files to get around FRP.
I suggest you to re-try flashing with Odin the Stock Marshmallow Firmware. Then Boot Into Stock Recovery do a Full Wipe.

Thanks for the recommendation. Done that (MM downgrade and full wipe) - same result, still DRK error only booting to recovery.

Hi JEffDC, thanks for the follow-up hints. Very interesting read and approach. As commented in the other thread, I think the package download link in the opening post is dead. I am also curious to see 2 more complexities in action:
1. Will this work on a G935F variant (Exynos vs Snapdragon)?
2. The only way for me to get to the Google Account prompt is by using the modded dm-verity version mentioned in my first post - but I am not sure I can get ADB access enabled simultaneously
Good luck.

Hey sathiere,
Came across this. It apparently removes the FRP before the system can start it up! Let me know what you think. I'm going to try it on a locked Edge next week or two. Seems to go right after the FRP protection file.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/help/how-to-bypass-frp-galaxy-s7-possibly-6-t3622126
and the download link works.

Yes, I am hoping for a response to my post there, near the end, clarifying. I think I get the method, and it's really pretty straight forward, really.
sathiere, I think basically what it does is provide two connections to the phone at the same time, one via Odin, and the other via direct ADB.
Step one is to flash a Universal boot loader, which is unlocked or can be unlocked via ADB. Now with the locked boot loader out of the way, on to getting rid of FRP.
Step two is run the. bat file which deletes the Persistence file, which is the Google encrypted setup file/FRP file. BOOM, FRP gone.
Then either stay on the Universal bootloader, or go back and flash the OEM.
Brilliant!
I have the same problem with a sm930f binary 2 boot loader. Stock Rom doesn't start and frp lock. How you fix it ? Thank you
Try this method

Sm-T580 FRP lock and custom binary blocked by frp. Cant flash twrp recovery.

So im trying to install twrp recovery but when i try to flash it thru odin, i get a Custom Binary (RECOVERY) blocked by FRP lock. I cant factory reset because it also disabled by FRP. I cant verify the tablet because i dont know the account information as the tablet was bought through craigslist. I have tried flashing a stock firmware version and that installed fine, but i still couldnt get past the verify screen. So thats when i decided to try and flash twrp but came into the binary error. I have been trying for the past two days to find a way around the verify identity and the frp lock. I cant enable oem unlock. I have tried rootjunky method but OTG flash wont pull up the file manager when plugged into the tablet. I cant use adb because i cant enable the developer settings because you guessed it i cant get past verify identity screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sounds like you need to find the Combination Firmware.

I already tried that method but didn't work. It's on android 7.0. I tried downgrading to sm-t580.. XAR firmware 6.1 and it worked but when it boots it goes straight to a black screen asking for a password. I tried the frp call method as well but it doesnt have wifi calling.

It only works with certain versions of 6. The one ending is PL4 is the one you want. The trick is in adding the fake wifi network instead of connecting to your home network. Pay close attention to the beginning of the video.

Okay thank you. I will try that again when I get home. And this works on version 7.0? The device is currently on 7.0 but when I tried the pl4 md5 it flashes it but when I boot up the device it just goes to a black screen and asks for a password. It doesn't start at the setup wizard

You have to use Odin to install PL4. You can't flash it via TWRP. Also, make sure you wipe everything first.

I know. I can't install twrp like I said. I've been using Odin to flash everything. But when I flashed the pl4 file and tablet goes to reboot. It doesn't load the setup wizard. Doesn't show the welcome screen and pick a language. It goes straight to a black screen and asks for a password. Doesn't ask for an email or anything.

Yea but when I try to factory wipe it says mdm doesn't allow factory reset and reboots and takes me back to that same black screen. I can only wipe cache partition. I will post a picture of the screen when I get home.

I found this site. It is apparently an "MDM lock" and not FRP.

Tried this as well. I did it about 20 times before giving up. I might try it again and do it about 30 to 50 times. If I was just able to get to settings I'd be straight but I can't get to the settings so that's why I'm trying to reset it as a completely new device. Do you know if I could flash the 7 inch tab A firmware onto the smt580? Or flash the smt585 firmware onto the t580 and flash the BL AP and CSC?

From what I've read, Airwatch MDM lock can't be removed by flashing ANYTHING. It is third party anti-theft protection that has nothing to do with what ROM is installed. I know I ran into their stuff a few years ago with a used laptop I bought and only Airwatch was able to solve the problem after contacting their customer and verifying the laptop wasn't stolen.

I did end up finding this. Seems the device is completely locked with no way to get around. When i flashed the device i may have deleted the admin privilages so there is no way of gettting around it as of now. I might end up paying someone to fix it or get around it or i wasted 180$ on a locked device. The guy i bought it from either blocked my number or deactivated his number as i cant get in contact with him. Pretty pissed. Thanks for all the help tho
I had the black screen password happen to me when I downgraded my SM-P580 from Android 7 to 6. Try clearing the cache. If that doesn't work, try reflashing, then turn it off and reboot to recovery and clear the cache.

Do you think if i changed the CSC to a different region on the tablet, and put a unlocked bootloader on it, would it might get rid of the frp lock? Do you happen to have a smt580? If so do you think there is anyother way of getting around this? say if i flashed like your firmware on to my tablet? Im desperate to get this thing unlocked as i would be out 180$ :crying:. Thanks for all your help so far. I really appreciate it man. Thanks to everyone who has helped so far.
Or what if i downgrade it to 6.1 and then downgrade it again to a even farther back version? Do you think this might work and gett me around the black screen? If so then i would be able to bypass the google verify account. Ima go ahead and try it unless its a risk of bricking the tablet completely.
I also read somewhere that if i flash the cp part on odin that it will erase all data. Think that might be worth a shot? But what do i need to insert in the cp slott? I know BL goes to BL and AP to AP and CSC home goes in CSC. So what goes in the cp slot?
EDIT: So instead of putting csc home in the csc slot i put the other csc file in its place. I checked the re partition box. When i did this i got a new message on the tablet in the top left of tthe download mode that says FRP is enabled, ignore PIT download. Any idea what this means?

How to recover Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) without factory reset?

Hello, I need to access Galaxy Tab SM-P585 which belonged to a friend who has passed away, so pattern, pin and Google account info are unknown. Also firmware is original from Samsung, developer mode is disabled and OEM locked. The only options available are recovery mode, where I can do a factory reset or enter sideload mode, and download mode. I have found this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49666433 to bypass pattern but custom recovery is needed to use either Pattern Password Disable or Aroma File Manager methods. Then I have tried to install TWRP via this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...covery-official-twrp-galaxy-tab-10-1-t3473023 via Odin however device returns error "Blocked by FRP Lock" which from my search is either Google or Samsung https://www.samsung.com/us/support/frp/ Is there a way to access this device without factory reset?

Try and reflash it using Odin with a stock firmware, that might work. Get your firmware from Sam Mobile firmwares. Just make sure you get the exact corresponding firmware...
Let me know how you go...

Thanks, I've looked up for SM-P585 model but found only firmwares for ME and Africa. Tried with South African version but got SECURE CHECK FAILED (BOOTLOADER) error, which I believe is because it is not exactly the same version. From the recovery menu I've found out that I need 7.0/NRD90M/T585XXU2BRB2 version (multi region) so now downloading from samsunggalaxyrom and getdroidtips. I'll see how it goes with either one...
P.S. From the instructions "Use CSC_*** if you want to do a clean flash or HOME_CSC_*** if you want to keep your apps and data." so I'll use HOME_CSC_ file to keep apps and the data.

If you use CSC it will wipe the device along with any security measures set up and basically put the device back to factory setup.

Unfortunately HOME_CSC didn't work, security settings were still there, so I have applied CSC. However now FRP requires me to logon using original Google account, even after factory reset, so this functionally means that device is only for a dumpster?

Not at all, FRP can be bypassed.
